Definitions
- the invention concerns esters of polyhydric alcohols of hyaluronic acid resulting from the esterification of such alcohols with two or more carboxy groups of the hyaluronic acid polysaccharide, esters which, due to the presence of bridge bonds between the above carboxy functions of the same or different molecules of hyaluronic acid, may be described by the term "cross-linked".
- These cross-linked esters may be total or partial and, in the latter, further carboxy functions may be esterified with monohydric or polyhydric alcohols, without the formation of cross-links (ester groups which shall also hereinafter be termed "simple").
- non-esterified carboxy functions may be free or salified with metals or organic bases.
- the invention also concerns the use of new cross-linked hyaluronic esters in the field of biodegradable plastic materials for the preparation of sanitary and surgical articles, in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic fields and, therefore, includes the various articles made with the same in such fields.
- the new esters may be seen in relation to the degree of cross-link esterification, that is the number of cross-linked groups of carboxy functions esterified with the above polyhydric alcohols, the number of simple esterified groups, and, lastly, also the number of salified groups, this degree of esterification or salification being itself related to the solubility of the product and to its viscous-elastic properties.
- the total cross-linked esters are virtually insoluble in aqueous liquids and are very suitable, due to their molecular structure, for use in the making of plastic materials and resins and as additives for these materials.
- Esters with an average or low degree of esterification and their salts with inorganic or organic bases are more or less soluble in aqueous conditions and are suitable for the preparation of gels which may have many uses, both in cosmetics and pharmacology and in the medical-sanitary field in general.
- the present invention makes available a wide assortment of cross-linked esters, including particular esters wherein the ester groups, comprise radicals which are unsubstituted by a hydroxyl (as in the case of products resulting from the reaction of the above epoxides on hyaluronic acid or its salts).
- the invention provides mixed esters comprising a mixture of ester groups which are cross-linked and some ester groups which are not cross-linked, wherein the percentage of crosslinking groups may exceed 10% of all of the disaccharide units of hyaluronic acid.
- the main object of the present invention is the total and partial cross-linked esters of hyaluronic acid with polyhydric alcohols of the aliphatic series.
- the partial cross-linked esters there may be carboxy groups esterified with monohydric or polyhydric alcohols of the aliphatic, alicyclic, araliphatic or heterocyclic series, and in the partial esters there may be nonesterified, salified carboxy groups with inorganic or organic bases, with the exception of cross-linked esters obtained by the action of a halomethyloxyrane or of a bisepoxy-compound on hyaluronic acid.
- hyaluronic acid is used in literature to mean acidic polysaccharides with different molecular weights consituted by residues of D-glucuronic and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine acids, which occur naturally in cell surfaces, in the basic extracellular substances of the connective tissue of vertebrates, in the synovial fluid of the joints, in the endobulbar fluid of the eye, in human umbilical cord tissue and in cocks' combs.
- Hyaluronic acid plays an important role in the biological organism, as a mechanical support for the cells of many tissues, such as the skin, tendons, muscles and cartilage and, therefore, it is the main component of the intercellular matrix, but it also plays other important roles in the biological processes, such as the moistening of tissues, lubrication, cell migration, cell functions and differentiation. (See for example A. Balazs et al. in "Cosmetics & Toiletries", Italian edition No. 5/84, pages 8-17).
- Hyaluronic acid may be extracted from the above natural tissues, for example from cocks' combs or also from some bacteria. It is possible today to prepare hyaluronic acid also by microbiological methods.
- the molecular weight of integral hyaluronic acid obtained by extraction is about 8-13 million.
- the molecular chain of this polysaccharide is quite easily degraded by means of various physical and chemical factors for example by mechanical means or under the influence of radiation or hydrolyzing, oxidizing or enzymatic agents. For this reason, even by using the usual purification procedures of original extracts, the degraded fractions obtained have a lower molecular weight (see Balazs et al. cited above).
- Hyaluronic acid, its molecular fractions and the respective salts have been used as medicaments and they have been proposed for use in cosmetics (see for example the above article by Balazs et al. and French Patent No. 2478468).
- hyaluronic acid and its salts have been used especially in therapy for arthropathies, for example in the veterinary field for the treatment of arthritis in horses [Acta Vet. Scand. 167 , 379 (1976)].
- As an auxilliary and substitute therapeutic agent for natural organs and tissues hyaluronic acid and its molecular fractions and their salts have been used in ophthalmic surgery (see for example Balazs et al.
- Hyaluronic acid may be used also as an additive for various polymeric materials used for sanitary and surgical articles, such as polyurethanes, polyesters, polyolefins, polyamides, polysiloxanes, vinyl and acrylic polymers, carbon fibres with the effect of rendering these materials biocompatible.
- polymeric materials used for sanitary and surgical articles such as polyurethanes, polyesters, polyolefins, polyamides, polysiloxanes, vinyl and acrylic polymers, carbon fibres with the effect of rendering these materials biocompatible.
- HY or its salts is effected for example by coating the surface of such materials, or by dispersion in the same or by both these procedures.
- Such materials may be used to make various sanitary and medical articles, such as cardiac valves, intraocular lenses, vascular clips, pace-makers and similar articles (see U.S. Patent No. 4,500,676).
- hyaluronic acid is in fact usually used incorrectly, meaning, as has been seen, a whole series of polysaccharides with alternating residues of D-glucuronic and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine acids with varying molecular weights or even the degraded fractions of the same, and it would therefore seem more correct to use the plural term of "hyaluronic acids".
- the singular term will, however, be used all the same in this description, likewise in the case of the molecular fractions, and, in addition, the abbreviation "HY" will frequently be used in place of this collective term.
- esters of hyaluronic acid with aliphatic, araliphatic, cycloaliphatic or heterocyclic alcohols possess similar and even superior properties to those of the acidic polysaccharide itself and they are even more suitable for the above uses.
- esters and a method for their preparation are described in the co-pending U.S. application Serial No. 881,454 filed on July 2, 1986, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
- the esters with a high degree of esterification and especially the total esters have, unlike hyaluronic acid, good solubility in organic solvents, for example in dimethylsulfoxide.
- the benzyl ester of HY dissolves in DMSO in the measure of 200 mg/ml.
- This solubility in certain organic solvents together with particular and marked viscous-elastic properties, makes it possible to obtain sanitary, medical and surgical articles which are insoluble in saline and which have the particular desired form: first a solution of the HY ester is prepared in an organic solvent, the very viscous solution is then shaped into the form desired for the finished article and lastly the organic solvent is extracted with another solvent which mixes with the first but in which the HY ester is insoluble.
- the cross-linked esters of the present invention may derive from any polyhydric alcohol of an aliphatic nature, and these derive however preferably from polyhydric alcohols with a maximum of 8 alcohol functions and especially 4 such functions and a maximum of 16 carbon atoms.
- polyhydric strictly speaking, generally refers to alcohols having three or more hydroxy groups, while the terms “dihydric” or “glycol” generally refer to alcohols having two hydroxy groups. However, as used herein the term “polyhydric” is meant to encompass alcohols having two or more hydroxy groups.
- the "polyhydric" alcohols may be dihydric alcohols, trihydric, tetrahydric, penta and hexahydric alcohols. Of these, special mention should be given to glycerine, the three erythrite isomers, pentaerythrite, the four xylitol isomers and the 10 dulcitol isomers.
- the "cross-links” may derive from various of the above polyhydric alcohols, however it is preferable to prepare esters in which all the "cross-links” derive from the same polyhydric alcohol.
- glycols The most important class of the new esters is the one deriving from dihydric alcohols, that is, from glycols.
- glycols have preferably the aforesaid maximum of 16 carbon atoms, and above all a maximum of 8 carbon atoms and are especially ethyleneglycol, propyleneglycol, butyleneglycol, the glycols deriving from pentane, hexane, heptane, octane and their position isomers.
- Such glycols may however also have double bonds, for example between one and three double bonds.
- the simple ester groups which may be present in addition to the cross-linked groups, may derive from alcohols of the aliphatic, araliphatic, alicyclic or heterocyclic series and may be substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated.
- Alcohols of the aliphatic series are for example those with a maximum of 34 carbon atoms, which may be saturated or unsaturated and which may possibly also be substituted by other free functional or functionally modified groups, such as amino, hydroxy, aldehydo, keto, mercapto, carboxy groups or by groups deriving from these, such as hydrocarbyl or dihydrocarbylamino groups (here and hereafter the term "hydrocarbyl" should be taken to mean not only monovalent radicals of hydrocarbons e.g.
- bivalent or trivalent radicals such as "alkylenes" -C n H 2n - or "alkylidenes” > C n H 2n ), ether or ester groups, acetal or ketal groups, thioether or thioester groups and esterified carboxy groups or carbamidic groups and substituted carbamidic groups by one or two hydrocarbyl groups, by nitrile groups or by halogens.
- substituted alcohols it is preferable to choose those with one or two of the abovesaid functions.
- these groups containing hydrocarbyls are preferably lower aliphatic radicals, for example alkyls, with a maximum of 6 carbon atoms.
- Such alcohols may then also be interrupted in the carbon atom chain by heteroatoms, such as oxygen atoms, nitrogen, sulfur.
- Alcohols of the above group to be used preferentially in the limits of the present invention are those with a maximum of 12 and especially 6 carbon atoms, and those, of the substituted ones, in which the hydrocarbyl radicals in the above said amino, ether, ester, thioether, thioester, acetal, ketal groups represent alkyl groups with a maximum of 4 carbon atoms, and in which in the esterified carboxy groups too, or substituted carbamidic groups, the hydrocarbyl groups are alkyls with the same number of carbon atoms, and in which the amino or carbamidic groups may be alkyleneamine or alkylene-carbamidic groups with a maximum of 8 carbon atoms.
- glycols are substituted alcohols, particularly preferred are the already mentioned glycols, otherwise used for the formation of "cross-links", but also polyhydric alcohols, such as glycerine, the aldehyde alcohols such as tartronic alcohol, carboxy alcohols such as lactic acids, for example ⁇ -oxypropionic acid, glycolic acid, malic acid, tartaric acids, citric acid, aminoalcohols, such as aminoethanol, aminopropanol, n-aminobutanol and their dimethyl and diethyl derivatives in the amino function, choline, pyrrolidinylethanol, piperidinylethanol, piperazinyl-ethanol and the corresponding derivatives of n-propyl alcohol or n-butyl alcohol, monothioethylenglycol or its alkyl derivatives, for example the ethyl derivative in the mercapto function.
- polyhydric alcohols such as glycerine
- aldehyde alcohols such as tart
- saturated higher aliphatic alcohols preferred are for example cetyl alcohol and myricyl alcohol, but of special importance for the aims of the present invention are the higher unsaturated alcohols with one or two double bonds, such as especially those contained in many essential oils and having an affinity with terpenes, such as for example citronellol, geraniol, nerol, nerolidol, linalool, farnesol and phytol.
- unsaturated lower alcohols allyl alcohol and propargyl alcohol are useful.
- araliphatic alcohols those to be mentioned above all are all those with only one benzene residue and in which the aliphatic chain has a maximum of 4 carbon atoms and in which the benzene residue may be substituted by between 1 and 3 methyl or hydroxy groups or by halogen atoms, especially by chlorine, bromine or iodine, and in which the aliphatic chain may be substituted by one or more functions chosen from the group constituted by free amino or mono or dimethyl groups or by pyrrolidinyl or piperidinic groups.
- these alcohols above all preferred are benzyl alcohol and phenethyl alcohol.
- the alcohols of the cycloaliphatic series may derive from mono or polycyclic hydrocarbons and may have preferably a maximum of 34 carbon atoms.
- the substitutes may be those already mentioned for the alcohols of the aliphatic series.
- the rings having preferably between 5 and 7 carbon atoms, which may be substituted for example by between one and three lower alkyl groups, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl or isopropyl groups.
- alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, propyl or isopropyl groups.
- specific alcohols of this group preferred are cyclohexanol, cyclohexanediol, 1,2,3 cyclohexanetriol and 1,3,5 cyclohexanetriol (phloroglucitol), inositol.
- They may be simple alcohols, such as furfuryl alcohol or alcohols with a more complicated structure, such as are present in many alkaloid derivatives and in many medicaments.
- the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention may be used for all the main applications suitable for hyaluronic acid or its salts or the above esters described in the above co-pending U.S. patent application.
- the new derivatives are therefore particularly suitable for the preparation of:
- the type of cross-linked ester is obviously chosen according to the use to which it is to be put.
- a high degree of esterification to the point of total esterification of the hyaluronic acid increases its lipophilic character and therefore diminishes its solubility in water.
- the molecular size of the esterifying component itself should be borne in mind, as this usually influences hydrosolubility in an inversely proportional manner.
- the greater or lesser degree of hydrophilic or lipophilic qualities should be considered in relation to the type of tissue to be treated, for example the skin in the case of dermal medicaments.
- the new cross-linked derivatives may be used as therapeutic agents due to the intrinsic property of the hyaluronic component itself, for example as drugs for the treatment of arthritis, both in human and veterinary medicine.
- they derive from polyhydric aliphatic alcohols with no pharmacological properties or with neglible activity, especially from dihydric alcohols with between 2 and 8 carbon atoms, and the other simple ester groups present possibly also derive from alcohols with no pharmacological action, for example from monohydric aliphatic alcohols with a maximum number of eight carbon atoms.
- Administration is effected by parenteral route and more precesely by intraarticular route.
- cross-linked derivatives according to the invention may also derive from alcohols with a pharmacological effect and this is especially true of alcohols from which simple ester groups are derived. They possess properties which are qualitatively similar to those of alcohol, but with a more differentiated range of action, ensuring a more balanced, constant and regular pharmacological action and usually having a marked "retard" effect.
- Other cross-linked derivatives again may contain simple ester groups of two or more different types of alcohols with or without their own pharmacological action.
- esters with the pharmacological activity of active alcohols without the specific activity of hyaluronic acid having those qualities described above of greater stability and bioavailability with respect to the desired activity and the characteristics of the pharmacologically active alcohols.
- the cross-linked hyaluronic molecule acts basically as a vehicle for the pharmacologically active component, and they may therefore also be included in groups 2) or 3). Since the new cross-linked derivatives act as actual vehicles according to uses 2) and 3), they are preferably also derived from the above said therapeutically inactive polyhydric alcohols, and also possibly ester groups deriving from monohydric alcohols are preferably without any pharmacological action.
- the active substance is physically mixed with the new derivatives and the resulting medicaments may also contain other ingredients and excipients commonly used in conventional pharmaceutical preparations. In place of an active substance it is possible to have an association of active substances. Particularly interesting are medicaments of this kind in which the new hyaluronic derivatives act as vehicle and containing topically active substances.
- the pharmacologically active alcohols to be used for the esterification of carboxy groups not yet cross-linked in the new derivatives may be, apart from those already listed, aliphatic-cycloaliphatic polycyclic alcohols, such as for example steroids, such as sexual hormones and their synthetic analogues and particularly corticosteroids and their derivatives, such as for example estradiol and its methyl derivatives, ethinyl or propinyl derivatives in position 17, testosterone and its derivatives, such as 17- ⁇ -methyl-testosterone, 17- ⁇ -ethinyl-testosterone, 1 ⁇ 1,2-dehydro-testosterone, nor-gestrel, 19-nor-testosterone, 19-nor-17- ⁇ -methyl-testosterone, anti-hormones such as cyproterone, cortisone, hydrocortisone, dexamethasone, betamethasone, paramethasone, flumethasone, fluocinolone, clobet
- Other therapeutically active alcohols are for example vitamins, such as axerophthol, vitamins D2 and D3, aneurine, lactoflavine, ascorbic acid, riboflavine, thiamine and pantothenic acid.
- vitamins such as axerophthol, vitamins D2 and D3, aneurine, lactoflavine, ascorbic acid, riboflavine, thiamine and pantothenic acid.
- heterocyclic alcohols we also mention atropine, scopolamine, cinchonine, cinchonidine, quinine, morphine, codeine, nalorphine, N-butylscopolammonium bromide, ajmaline; phenylethylamine such as ephedrine, isoproterenol, epinephrine, phenothiazine drugs such as perphenazine, pipotiazine, carphenazine, homofenazine, acetophenazine, fluphen
- One particularly interesting aspect of the present invention is the possibility of preparing more stable drugs than those available up till now. It is possible therefore on the one hand to prepare cross-linked derivatives for use in the indications which are typical of hyaluronic acid itself, for example for intra-articular injections where the cross-linked derivative acts as lubricant: due to the better stability of the derivatives when the hyaluronidase is compared to the free acid, it is possible to obtain a quite notably prolonged action. On the other hand it is possible to obtain drugs with a "retard" action for the above derivatives containing also ester groups deriving from therapeutically active alcohols. In these the pharmacologically active alcohol is very slowly released into the organism by means of esterases.
- the new cross-linked derivatives are prepared above all with pharmacologically inert alcohols, for example bivalent saturated aliphatic alcohols, especially those with between 2 and 8 carbon atoms, glycerin and from monovalent alcohols, above all aliphatic alcohols, but also some others of the abovesaid series for partial esterification in the carboxy groups which are not cross-linked.
- pharmacologically inert alcohols for example bivalent saturated aliphatic alcohols, especially those with between 2 and 8 carbon atoms, glycerin and from monovalent alcohols, above all aliphatic alcohols, but also some others of the abovesaid series for partial esterification in the carboxy groups which are not cross-linked.
- unsaturated alcohols for example those with one or more double bonds such as vinyl or allyl alcohols and their condensed derivatives, such as especially polyvinyl alcohol and glycerin.
- mixed esters according to the particular intended use.
- Alicyclic alcohols are also useful, for example derived from cyclopentane and cyclohexane and from their derivatives substituted by inferior alkyl groups, for example alkyls with between 1 and 4 carbon atoms, especially by methyl groups.
- terpene alcohols such as those mentioned above, especially odoriferous alcohols for the preparation of perfumes and scented creams.
- the carboxy groups not "cross-linked” or not esterified may be free or salified.
- the salts may have inorganic bases, for example alkaline metals such as potassium and particularly sodium and ammonium, and alkaline earth metals such as calcium, or magnesium and aluminium salts, or may have organic bases, especially azotized bases and therefore aliphatic, araliphatic, cycloaliphatic or heterocyclic amines. These salts may derive from therapeutically acceptable but inactive amines, or from amines with a therapeutic action.
- aliphatic amines for example mono-, di and tri-alkylamines with alkyl groups with a maximum of 18 carbon atoms or arylalkylamines with the same number of carbon atoms in the aliphatic part and where aryl means a benzene group possibly substituted be between 1 and 3 methyl groups or halogen atoms or hydroxy groups.
- the biologically inactive bases for the formation of the salts may also be cyclic such as monocyclic alkylenamines with cycles of between 4 and 6 carbon atoms, possibly interrupted in the cycle by heteroatoms chosen from the group formed by nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur, such as piperidine, piperazine or morpholine, or may be substituted for example by amino or hydroxy functions, such as aminoethanol, ethylendiamine, ephedrine, or choline.
- quaternary ammonium salts of partial esters for example tetraalkylammonium salts with the above said number of carbon atoms and preferably salts of the same type in which the fourth alkyl group has between 1 and 4 carbon atoms, for example a methyl group.
- Those biologically active amines whose therapeutic action may be put to use, include azotated and basic drugs such as those included in the following groups: alkaloids, peptides, phenothiazine, benzodiazepine, thioxantene, hormones, vitamins, anticonvulsivants, antipsychotics, antiemetics, anesthetics, hypnotics, anorexics, tranquillizers, muscle-relaxants, coronary vasodilators, antineoplastics, antibiotics, antibacterials, antivirals, antimalarials, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, nonsteroid anti-inflammatories, vasoconstrictors, cholinergic agonists, cholinergic antagonists, adrenergic agonists, adrenergic blockers, narcotic antagonists.
- Salification of the nonesterified carboxy groups with therapeutically active bases may substitute or integrate the vehicling function of the new cross-linked derivatives obtained by esterification with therapeutically active alcohols and therefore represents another particlular case of the use of the new compounds as therapeutic vehicles according to point 2): the active bases are vehicled both by the neutral salts obtainable by addition of the basic stoichiometric quantity, both from the basic salts obtainable by addition of an excess of base or of those acids obtainable by addition of a basic defect.
- the new hyaluronic derivatives according to the present invention are particularly useful since they are medicaments for local or topical use, especially in ophthalmology, where they show particular compatibility with the corneal epithelium and are therefore very well tolerated, with no sensitization effects. Furthermore, when the medicaments are administered in the form of concentrated solutions with elastic-viscous characteristics or in solid form, it is possible, on the corneal epithelium, to obtain homogenous, stable and perfectly transparent films which are also perfectly adhesive, guaranteeing prolonged bioavailability of the drug and which therefore constitute excellent preparations with a retard effect.
- ophthalmic medicaments are of exceptional value especially in the veterinary field, considering that there are at present no veterinary specialities containing chemical agents. Indeed, products intended for human use are used on animals, and these cannot always guarantee a specific range of action and are sometimes unsuitable for application in the conditions under which they are to be administered. For example, this is the case of therapy for infective keratoconjunctivitis, pink eye or IBK, an infection which usually affects cattle, sheep and goats.
- the main micro-organism involved seems to be Moraxella bovis (even though other agents of viral origin are not to be excluded, such as the Rhinotracheitis virus, in sheep Mycoplasma, Rickettsia and Chlamydia, in goats Rickettsia).
- the disease presents itself in acute form and tends to spread rapidly: in the initial stages the symptomatology is characterised by blepharospasm and excessive lacrimation, followed by purulent discharge, conjunctivitis and keratitis, often associated with fever, a reduction in appetite and milk production.
- Particularly serious are the corneal lesions which in the final stages may even cause perforation of the cornea itself.
- the clinical course varies from a few days to several weeks.
- a vaste range of therapies involving chemical agents are used, administered both by topical route (often associated with steroid anti-inflammatory agents), and systemic route, such as: tetracycline, such as oxytetracycline, penicillin, such as cloxacillin and benzyl penicillin, sulphamidics, polymixin B (associated with miconazole and prednisolone), chloramphenicol, tylosin and chloromycetin.
- Topical treatment of the disease despite its apparent simplicity, is still an open problem, since with the ocular preparations used until now it has not been possible for one reason or another to obtain concentrations of therapeutically effective antibiotics or sulphamidics in the lachrymal secretion.
- hyaluronic ester as a vehicle in ophthalmic drugs allows for the formulation of excellent preparations with no concentration gradient of active substance and being therefore perfectly homogenous, transparent and adhesive to the corneal epithelium, with no sensitization effects and with the active substance acting as an excellent vehicle, possibly also with a retard effect.
- Medicaments containing the new derivatives which may be used in ophthalmic treatments mainly concern miotic, wound healing, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial/antibiotic effects.

- the medicaments of the type described here for topical use may be in solid form, such as freeze-dried powders containing only the two components as a mixture or separately.
- Such solid form medicaments on contact with the epithelium to be treated, form more or less concentrated solutions according to the nature of the particular epithelium having the same characteristics as the solutions previously prepared in vitro and which represent another particlularly interesting aspect of the present invention.
- Such solutions are preferably in distilled water or sterile saline and contain prefereably no other pharmaceutical vehicle besides the hyaluronic ester or one of its salts.
- the concentrations of such solutions may also vary within wide limits, for example between 0.01 and 75% both for each of the of the two components taken separately, and for their mixtures or salts.
- solutions with pronounced elastic viscous properties for example with a content of between 10% and 90% of the medicament or of each of its components.
- medicaments of this type both in an anhydrous form (freeze-dried powder) or as concentrated solutions or diluted in water or saline, possibly with the addition of additive or auxilliary substances, such as in particular disinfectant substances or mineral salts acting as vehicle or others, for ophthalmic use.
- the medicaments of the invention it is preferable to choose, as the case may be, those with a degree of acidity suitable for the environment to which they are to be applied, that is, with a physiologically tolerable pH.
- the pH for example in the above salts of the hyaluronic acid esters with a basic active substance, may be adjusted by suitably regulating the quantity of polysaccharide, of its salts and of the basic substance itself.
- the acidity of a salt of a hyaluronic ester with a basic substance is too high, the excess of free acid groups is neutralized with the above said inorganic bases, for example with sodium or potassium or ammonium hydrate.
- the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention may be prepared by methods per se known for the esterification of carboxy acids, for example for treatment of free hyaluronic acid with the above polyhydric alcohols in the presence of catalysts, such as strong inorganic acids or acid-type ionic exchangers, or with an etherifying agent able to introduce the desired alcohol residue in the presence of inorganic or organic bases.
- catalysts such as strong inorganic acids or acid-type ionic exchangers
- an etherifying agent able to introduce the desired alcohol residue in the presence of inorganic or organic bases.
- etherifying agents it is possible to use those named in literature, such as especially the esters of various inorganic acids or organic sulfonic acids, such as hydrogen acids, that is the alkyl halogenide, such as methyl iodide or other alkyl groups which are at the base of the above bivalent alcohols.
- the reaction may be effected in a suitable solvent, for example an alcohol, preferably the one corresponding to the alkyl group to be introduced into the carboxy group, but may also be effected in non-polar solvents such as ketones, ethers, such as dioxane or aprotic solvents, such as dimethylsulfoxide.
- a suitable solvent for example an alcohol, preferably the one corresponding to the alkyl group to be introduced into the carboxy group, but may also be effected in non-polar solvents such as ketones, ethers, such as dioxane or aprotic solvents, such as dimethylsulfoxide.
- a base it is possible to use for example a hydrate of an alkaline metal, alkaline earth metal or magnesium or oxide of silver or a basic salt of one of these metals, such as carbonate, and, of the organic bases, a tertiary azotized base, such as pyridine or collidine.
- esterification method involves metal salts or salts with organic azotized bases, for example ammonium or ammonium substitute salts.
- the salts of alkaline or alkaline earth metals should be used, but any other metal salt may also be used.
- the etherifying agents are also in this case those mentioned above and the same is true of the solvents.
- aprotic solvents should be used, for example dimethylsulfoxide and dimethylformamide.
- these may be prepared to advantage, starting with the quaternary ammonium salts of hyaluronic acid with an etherifying agent in an aprotic solvent, such as dialkylsulfoxides, dialkylcarboxylamides, such as in particular lower alkyl dialkylsulfoxides, above all dimethylsulfoxide, and lower alkyl dialkylamides of inferior aliphatic acids, such as dimethyl or diethyl formamide or dimethyl or diethylacetamide.
- an aprotic solvent such as dialkylsulfoxides, dialkylcarboxylamides, such as in particular lower alkyl dialkylsulfoxides, above all dimethylsulfoxide, and lower alkyl dialkylamides of inferior aliphatic acids, such as dimethyl or diethyl formamide or dimethyl or diethylacetamide.
- the reaction is effected preferably at a temperature range of between about 0° and 100°, and especially between about 25° and 75°, for example at about 30°.
- Esterification is effected preferably by gradually adding the esterifying agent to the above ammonium salt dissolved an one of the solvents mentioned, for example in dimethylsulfoxide.
- the same method can be used to prepare the typical cross-linked esters of the present invention, that is, the bridge bonds between two carboxy groups are easily formed by etherifying substances deriving from the above polyhydric alcohols on the quaternary ammonium salts of hyaluronic acid.
- quaternary ammonium salts it is preferable to use an inferior ammonium tetraalkylates, the alkyl groups having preferably between 1 and 6 carbon atoms.
- tetrabutylammonium hyaluronate should be used.
- quaternary ammonium salts can be prepared by reacting a metal salt of hyaluronic acid, preferably one of those mentioned above, especially sodium or potassium salt, in aqueous solution with a sulfonic resin salified with the quaternary ammonium base.
- Tetraalkylammonium hyaluronate can be obtained by freeze-drying the eluate.
- tetraalkylammonium hyaluronates deriving from lower alkyls, especially alkyls with between 1 and 6 carbon atoms, are new and form another object of the present invention.
- such salts have proved to be soluble in the above aprotic solvents, and esterification of hyaluronic acid according to the above new procedure is therefore particularly easy and gives abundant yields. It is, therefore, only by such a procedure that it is possible to exactly dose the number of hyaluronic acid carboxy groups to be esterified.
- hyaluronic acids of any origin may be used, for example the acids extracted from the above natural starting materials, for example from cocks' combs. The preparation of such acids is described in literature: preferably, purified hyaluronic acids should be used.
- hyaluronic acids comprising the molecular fractions of the integral acids obtained directly by extraction of the organic materials with molecular weights which may vary greatly, for example between about 90%-80% and 0,2% of the molecular weight of the integral acid, preferably between 5% and 0,2%.
- These fractions may be obtained by various procedures described in literature, and that is, by hydrolizing or oxidizing or enzymatic agents or physical procedures, for example mechanical procedures or by irradiation, and often therefore, primordial extracts are formed during these same purification procedures (see for example the above mentioned article by Balazs et al. in "Cosmetics & Toiletries”).
- the separation and purification of the molecular fractions obtained is effected for example by known techniques, for example by molecular filtration.
- One purified HY fraction suitable for use according to the invention is for example the one named "non-inflammatory sodium hyaluronate-NIF-NaHA described by Balazs in the leaflet "Healon” - A guide to its use in Ophthalmic Surgery - D. Miller & R. Stegmann, eds. John Wiley & Sons N.Y 81983: p.5.
- Particulary important as starting materials for the esters of the present invention are two purified fractions obtainable from hyaluronic acid, for example the type extracted from cocks' combs, known by the names of "Hyalastine" and "Hyalectin".
- the fraction Hyalastine has an average molecular weight of between about 50,000 and 100,000 while the fraction Hyalectin has an average molecular weight of between about 500,000 and 730,000.
- One fraction combined with these two fractions has also been isolated and characterized as having an average molecular weight of between about 250,000 and 350,000. This combined fraction may be obtained giving a yield of total hyaluronic acid equal to 80% of the amount available in the particular starting material, while the fraction Hyalectin can be obtained with a yield of 30% and the fraction Hyalastine with a yield of 50% of the starting HY.
- the preparation of these fractions is described in Examples 38 and 40.
- the nonesterified carboxy groups may be free or salified or partially salified and various different types of cross-linked products are therefore obtained. That is, those in which the remaining carboxy groups are free or salified, those in which the remaining carboxy groups are totally or partially esterified and in the latter the remaining groups may in turn be free or salified.
- a whole range of products is available, varying in their physical properties and especially regarding their degree of acidity and visco-elastic properties and their ability to form gels.
- the number of acid groups to be kept free may be important for the preparation of medicaments with a particular pH.
- Preparation of the salts of the new derivatives can be carried out in the known manner, for example by reacting on the hyaluronic derivative the calculated basic quantity of alkaline hydrates for example or basic salts of alkaline metals, such as carbonates or bicarbonates. It is possible for example to first prepare aqueous solutions of the hyaluronic derivative and of the base, freeing such substances from the aqueous solutions of their salts with suitable ionic exchangers, pooling the two solutions at a low temperature, for example between 0° and 20°; if the salt thus obtained is easily soluble in water it is freeze-dried, while the less soluble salts may be separated by centrifugation or filtration or decanting and possibly then dried.
- the medicaments obtained as salts of such bases with the new derivatives may be neutral, acid or basic according to whether stoichiometric quantities are added, or whether there is a basic defect or excess.
- medicaments of the above type starting with the previously isolated salts and possibly purified, in an anhydrous state, such as amorphous powders, which on contact with the tissue to be treated constitute a concentrated aqueous solution of a gelatinous character, viscous consistency and with elastic properties.
- anhydrous state such as amorphous powders
- These qualities are maintained also at stronger dilutions and may be used in place of the above anydrous salts, more or less concentrated solutions in water or saline, possibly with the addition of other excipients or additives, such as other mineral salts to regulate the pH and osmotic pressure.
- the salts to make gels, inserts, creams or ointments, including other excipients or ingredients used in traditional formulations of these pharmaceutical preparations.

- the invention is illustrated by the following Examples, without them limiting its range, in which DMSO means dimethylsulfoxide.
- the products described in the Examples comprise cross-linked esters according to the invention, having a percentage of the hyaluronic acid carboxyls esterified with a polyhydric alcohol, and having the remaining carboxyls salified and/or esterified with a monohydric alcohol.

- the whole is agitated for 6 hours at a speed of 50 rpm. It is left to separate for 12 hrs and then the acetone is discarded by siphoning. Acetone extraction is repeated until the discarded acetone reaches the right degree of humidity (Karl-Fischer method).
- the whole is then centrifuged and vacuum dried at a suitable temperature for 5-8 hours. Approximately 500-600 gr of dry powdered cocks' combs are thus obtained.
- the mixture is cooled to 25°C and then filtered first on Celite® and then through a filtre. It is then again exposed to molecular ultrafiltration on membrane with a molecular exclusion limit of 30.000 ultrafiltering three initial volumes with the addition of a 0.33M sodium chloride solution.
- the addition of sodium chloride solution is suspended and the volume is reduced to 1/4 of the initial volume.
- the solution thus concentrated is precipitated under agitation (60 rpm) at 25°C with 3 volumes of ethanol (95%).
- the precipitate is gathered by centrifugation and the supernatant is discarded.
- the precipitate is dissolved in 1 lt of 0.1M solution in sodium chloride and precipitation is repeated with 3 volumes of 95% ethanol.
- the precipitate is gathered and washed first with 75% ethanol 3 times, then with absolute ethanol (3 times), and lastly with absolute acetone (3 times).
- the product thus obtained (HYALASTINE + HYALECTIN fractions) has an average molecular weight of between 250,000 and 350,000.
- the yield of HY is equal to 0.6% of original fresh tissue
- Example 39 Method for obtaining the fraction Hyalastine from the mixture obtained by the method described in Example 38.
- the mixture obtained by the method described in Example 38 is dissolved in apyrogenic distilled water in a measure of 10 mg of product per 1 ml of water.
- the solution obtained is exposed to molecular filtration through filtre membranes with a molecular exclusion limit of 200,000, using a concentration technique without the addition of water on top of the membrane.
- the molecules with a molecular weight of over 200,000 cannot pass, while the smaller molecules pass through the membrane together with the water.
- no water is added on top of the membrane; so that the volume diminishes, and consequently the concentration of molecules with a molecular weight of over 200,000 increases.
- the product thus obtained (HYALASTINE fraction) has an average molecular weight of between 50,000 and 100,000.
- the yield of HY is equal to 0.4% of the original starting fresh tissue.
- the solution is brought to 0.1M in sodium chloride and then precipitated with 4 volumes of 95% ethanol.
- the precipitate is washed 3 times with 75% ethanol and then vacuum dried.
- the product thus obtained (HYALECTIN fraction) has a molecular weight of between 500,000 and 730,000. This corresponds to a specific hyaluronic acid fraction with a molcular chain measuring between about 2,500 and 3,500 saccharide units and with a high degree of purity.
- the yield of HY is equal to 0.2% of original fresh starting tissue.
- Example 41 Preparation of films of cross-linked derivatives of hyaluronic acid (HY) and partially esterified with various alcohols
- the DMSO solutions after addition of all the ingredients and after homogenization obtained as in Examples 6-15, 19-30 and 37, are layered in glass dishes to the desired thickness and in an atmosphere of nitrogen, in absolutely dry conditions and away from light for 24 hr.
- the films of cross-linked and esterified hyaluronic derivatives thus obtained and in which are also present tetrabutylammonium carboxy groups are dialyzed first in NaCl 1% and then in distilled H2O at 4°C, the solutions being changed periodically.
- the films containing sodium salts of the above cross-linked derivatives are then placed between two cellophane membranes and vacuum dried at 37° in a slab dryer.
- the pharmaceutical preparations containing the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention and their salts as active principle both in the case of cross-linked derivatives possibly further esterified and/or salified with therapeutically active alcohols and intended for the same indications as HY itself, and in the case of esters with therapeutically active alcohols intended for use in indications corresponding to such alcohols, contain the common excipients and may be destined for oral, rectal, parenteral, subcutaneous, local, intradermal or topical use. They are therefore in solid or semisolid form, for example, pills, tablets, gelatinous capsules, capsules, suppositories, soft gelatin capsules.
- parenteral and subcutaneous uses it is possible to use forms intended for intramuscular or intradermal administration, or suitable for infusion or intravenous injections. It is, therefore, possible to present active compounds as solutions or as freeze-dried powders active compounds to be pooled with one or more excipients or diluents which are pharmaceutically acceptable, and convenient for the above uses and with a type of osmolarity suitable for physiological liquids.
- preparations in spray form should be considered, for example nasal sprays, creams or ointments for topical use of plasters suitably prepared for intradermal administration.
- the preparations of the invention may be destined for administration to man or animal. They contain preferably between 0.01% and 10% of active component for solutions, sprays, ointments and creams and between 1% and 100% and preferably between 5% and 50% of the active compound for preparations in solid form.
- the dosage to be administered depends on the indication, on the desired effect and on the chosen administration route.
- the daily dosage of such preparations may be deduced from that in use for the corresponding known preparations both of hyaluronic acid for the corresponding cures, for example for the cure of arthritis, for example in man or in horse, and of therapeutically active alcohol the action of which is to be exploited.
- the dosage of a hyaluronic ester with cortisone may be derived from its content in this ester and from its usual dosage in the known pharmaceutical preparations.
- the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention and their salts are mixed with the excipients commonly used in this art and are for example those already listed above for pharmaceutical preparations.
- creams, ointments, lotions for topical use are used in which the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention may constitute the active cosmetic principle possibly with the addition of other cosmetically active principles, such as steroids, for example pregnenolone, or one of the principles reported above.
- the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention are preferably esters with an alcohol without any cosmetic action, such as a lower aliphatic alcohol, for example one of those already mentioned. In these preparations the effect is due to the intrinsic cosmetic properties of the polysaccharide component, as in the case of free hyaluronic acid or its salts.
- the cosmetic articles may, however, be based on substances with specific actions which differ from those of hyaluronic acid, for example disinfectants, sunshields, waterproofing or regenerating substances, or anti-wrinkle or odoriferous substances, especially perfumes.
- the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention may again be themselves the active ingredient and derive from alcohols with these properties, for example from higher aliphatic alcohols or terpene alcohols in the case of perfumes or may function above all as vehicles for substances with those properties with which they are associated.
- the invention therefore includes all the articles similar to those already on the market containing hyaluronic acid but also containing the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention in place of the free acid or one of its salts, for example inserts or ophthalmic lenses.
- Completely new surgical and sanitary articles according to the present invention are represented by the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention regenerated as such by appropriate organic solutions capable of being made into sheet or thread form, thus obtaining films, sheets and threads for use in surgery, as auxiliaries and substitutes of the skin in cases of serious damage to this organ, for example following burns, or as suture threads in surgery.
- the invention includes in particular these uses and one preparation procedure of these articles consists in (a) forming a solution of a hyaluronic ester or one of its salts in a suitable organic solvent, for example a ketone, an ester or an aprotic solvent such as a carboxy acid amide, especially a dialkylamide of an aliphatic acid having between 1 and 5 carbon atoms and deriving from alkyl groups with between 1 and 6 carbon atoms, first and foremost from an organic sulfoxide, that is, a dialkylsulfoxide with alkyl groups with a maximum of 6 carbon atoms, such as especially dimethylsulfoxide or diethylsulfoxide and again first and foremost by a fluorinated solvent with a low boiling point such as especially hexafluoroisopropanol, (b) making this solution into sheet or thread form and (c) removing the organic solvent by contact with another organic or aqueous solvent which can be mixed with the first solvent and in which
- the threads obtained with the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention may be used for the preparation of lints for use in the medication of wounds and in surgery.
- the use of such lints has the exceptional advantage of their biodegradation in the organism, effected by the enzymes it contains. These enzymes split the ester in hyaluronic acid and in the corresponding alcohol and in a compound already present in the organism, or rather, an innocuous compound such as an alcohol.
- Such lints and also the above threads may also therefore be left inside the organism after surgery, since these are subsequently slowly absorbed due to the above degradation process.
- plasticizers may be for example alkaline salts of fatty acids, for example sodium stearate or sodium palmitate, the esters of organic acids with many carbon atoms, etc.
- Another application of the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention where their biodegradable qualities are utilized by the esterases present in the organism, is represented by the preparation of capsules for subcutaneous implatation of medicaments or of microcapsules for injection, for example by subcutaneous and intramuscular route.
- capsules made of silicon material have been used until today, with the disadvantage that such capsules are liable to migrate within the organism and it is impossible to recover them. Obviously, with the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention this danger no longer exists.
- a further application of the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention in the field of medicine and surgery is represented by the preparation of various solid inserts such as plates, discs, sheets, etc. substituting the metallic ones those containing synthetic plastic material currently in use, in cases involving inserts intended for removal after a certain length of time.
- Preparations containing animal collagen, being of a proteic nature often provoke unpleasant reactions, such as inflammation or rejection.
- this danger does not exist, since there is no incompatibility between the polysaccharides of various animal species.
- Another use is for the correction of defects and the augmentation of soft tissues.
- a need has been felt for some time for safe and efficient biomaterials with which to substitute soft tissues which have been removed or damaged.
- Many alloplasty materials including paraffin, teflon paste, silicon and bovine collagene have been used to substitute for lost soft tissue.
- these materials were associated with undesirable and permanent changes in the skin tissues, with migration in situ and with negative reactions.
- the need persists therefore for a versatile biomaterial for use in medicine.
- the new cross-linked derivatives of the present invention may be safely and effectively used to correct such defects of the soft tissues such as acne pimples, postsurgical atrophic irregularities, Mohs' chemosurgery, lacerated lip wounds and wrinkles caused by age.
- preparations made of expansive material especially in the form of sponges, for the medication of wounds or lesions of various nature.
